This is true.


The topic is

and you say...

one of our main strengths is our bullpen.


This can not be true based on what we're talking about here. Right now we don't have an ace, we don't have a clear Sunday starter, and our closer is struggling...since this is the case, and if our bullpen really is one of our main strengths, then what does that say about our team?

The point I'm getting at is..

Get ready for some more series losses until we can get something figured out in our pitching. Errors are going to happen, batting slumps are going to happen, our pitching has to rise about it all and our starters have been the weak link so far.

Lindgren and Graveman have been very solid. Cox has been solid in his starts (although none have been against SEC competition). Bracewell, Pollo, R. Mitchell, Gentry, and Girodo have all been great out of the pen. All I am saying is that when looking at the staff, Cox was clearly the 4th starter and has been solid in his starts. I think he should get the 3rd spot while E. Mitchell is visiting with a sports psychiatrist.

Given the current state of the staff, I'd throw things like this.
1) Lindgren
2) Graveman
3) Cox
Relief if game is close:
R. Mitchell
Pollo
Gentry
Only comes in to face lefties:
Girodo
Closer:
Bracewell

Relief if up or down by more than 4:
E. Mitchell
CT
Girodo
Woodruff
Holder
Anyone else.
